Raiders signed Notre Dame DL Myron Tayovailoa-Amosa.
Tagovailoa-Amos (6’2/270) comes from NFL bloodlines as the cousin of Tua Tagovailoa. For his first four years on campus, he was utilized as a 290-pound three tech. He broke out in 2019, logging 443 snaps with 24 pressures, 22 tackles, and 18 stops while earning a very respectable 77.8 PFF defensive grade. In 2021, Tagovailoa-Amos was asked to transition to edge defender, dropping 20 pounds and posting his best statistical season with 34 pressures, 25 tackles, 18 stops, six TFL, and two sacks in addition to a 70-yard fumble return for a touchdown. He didn’t distinguish himself during testing, combining for a lowly 4.09 relative athletic score. He is viewed as a tweener between three-tech and edge. His middling athleticism, stubby frame, and average production make Tagovailoa-Amos a reserve lineman candidate in the NFL.
